Europe’s Amazing Vanishing Act

“Now you see it! Now you don’t!” the Super Star Magician recites the magic
words, “Allahu Akbar!” (in lieu of “Presto!”).

The Islamic magician, sporting a
magnificently bejeweled turban (in lieu of a top hat), and a handlebar moustache
(not strictly halal)with lascivious grins, first gropes the prone near-nude
form of Europa in its intimate parts to prove to the audience that it is a real
person and not a mannequin. Then the lights dim, he waves his baton, and sweeps
his cape with its blood red lining before the table, and snaps it once with a
deft flick of the wrist. When he jerks the cape away, the table is empty. In
fact, the table itself has even disappeared.

How did he do that?? The audience applauds
and wonders.

No one suspects that the table and its
captive assistant vanished through a stage trapdoor.

It’s not exactly rocket science. Every week
or so we read of another episode of Europe’s Amazing Vanishing Act. I also call
it – and I’m sure I’m not alone in this characterization – The Great
Self-Erasure. Europe, the alleged apogee of Western civilization, is rapidly
erasing itself from existence. Why? It’s the altruist thing to do. Without the
act of immolation and penance, it could accrue no “virtue.” The catch is that
by the time Europe fades completely from existence, nothing will be left to claim
any virtue.

I do not envy the chroniclers of this drawn-out
Western-style act of cultural Hari Kari, such as Soeren Kern and George Igler
of Gatestone, who have for some time provided us with details of this suicide
where the MSM has not and refused to. It’s not an inspiring task they’ve taken
on.

Soeren Kern reports in his January 2nd
article, “The
Islamization of Germany in 2016” the pathetic dhimmi actions
of Western governments in the face of the Islamization of Europe, and especially
of Germany, which brought on the phenomenon and is paying the price:

"There are written instructions ... today we are not allowed to
say anything negative about the refugees. This is government journalism, and
this leads to a situation in which the public loses their trust in us. This is
scandalous." — Wolfgang Herles, Deutschlandfunk public radio.

In Germany, and also in Sweden, Germans and
Swedes are not allowed to get a glimmer of the peril their governments have put
them in, in the name of multiculturalism, even though Muslims especially laugh at
and dismiss the vaunted value of multiculturalism, and proclaim that Islam will
dominate and that Sharia-defined “culture” will set the terms of a country’s
existence. Muslim committed crime rates are not to be reported or publicized
for fear of “offending” Muslims, or for creating a prejudice against Muslims and
all “migrants” (a.k.a. invaders).

A Cologne police superintendent revealed that he was ordered to remove
the term "rape" from an internal police report about the mass sexual
assaults in Cologne on New Year's Eve. He said that an official at the
North-Rhine Westphalia Interior Ministry told him in an angry tone: "This
is not rape. Remove this term from your report. Submit a new report."

January 6. Former Interior Minister Hans-Peter Friedrich said it was "scandalous that it took the mainstream
media several days" to report on the sexual assaults in Cologne. He said
public media was a "cartel of silence" exercising censorship to
protect migrants from accusations of wrongdoing.

What was I saying about erasures? “Your
clothes were never ripped off of you, you were not held down and several smelly
migrants had forcible sex on you, you were not robbed, spit on, beaten up, and
left naked in the cold. You were being ‘culturally enriched.’ Don’t laugh. That’s
now a hate crime. Five hundred Euros!”

So “rape” is no longer a reportable crime? Especially
if a migrant commits the crime? To report a rape is now considered a form of “Islamophobia”?
Europeans are no longer permitted to express a fear of violence against them.
It’s not “patriotic.” They are no longer allowed to say anything “negative” about;
Islam or Muslims in public without penalty. They are no longer allowed to even
discuss the subject among themselves, for fear of being accused of “Merkelphobia.”

January 26. In an interview with Deutschlandfunk public radio, retired
public media personality Wolfgang Herles admitted that public broadcasters
receive "instructions from above" when it comes to reporting the
news.

February 16. Migrants committed 208,344
crimes in 2015, according to a leaked police report. This figure
represented an 80% increase over 2014 and worked out to around 570 crimes
committed by migrants every day, or 23 crimes each hour, between January and
December 2015.

The actual number of migrant crimes is far
higher, however, because the report included only crimes that have been solved
(aufgeklärten Straftaten). Statistics show that only around half of all
crimes committed in Germany in any given year are solved (Aufklärungsquote).
This implies that the actual number of crimes committed by migrants in 2015
exceeded 400,000.

Soeren sounds Germany’s death knell in many more instances in just this
one article. On the whole it is a very depressing and terrifying read.

George Igler reports on the refusal of the European Union and many of
its member states to face the apocalyptic consequences of their “come one, come
all” migrant policies. In “The EU vs. the
Nation State?” he writes:

The question remains, however, why any nation
would want to throw out its sovereignty to institutions that are fundamentally
unaccountable, that provide no mechanism for reversing direction, and whose
only "solution" to problems involves arrogating to itself ever more authoritarian,
rather than democratically legitimate, power.

The Netherlands' Partij Voor de Vrijheid,
France's Front National and Germany's Alternativ für Deutschland
are each pushing for a referendum on EU membership in their respective nations.

Given that the EU's institutions have been so
instrumental as a causal factor in the mass migration and terrorism that are
now dominating the minds of national electorates, some might argue that the
sooner Europeans get rid of the EU, which is now doing more harm than good, the
better.

The European Union was intended in the beginning to be a solution to
European problems and to be a “Great Unifier” of the disparate European
nations. But the EU over a period of decades evolved into an authoritarian
overlord that caused more problems than it ever solved and which overrode
virtually any and all claims of national sovereignty, which were viewed by its
unelected “Politburo” as challenges and threats to the “common good.” Europeans
are reluctant less and less to sleep in the bed they made.

For all the discussion of a populist revolt in European politics, the parties agitating
for change against the continent's open borders, and its centralized,
unaccountable and un-transparent law-making – originating from the institutions
of the EU – continue to face an uphill climb.

In Germany, despite the calamities associated with the decision of its Chancellor,
Angela Merkel, to accept 1.5 million Muslim migrants into her nation in 2015,
she is seeking re-election.

Never mind the fact that Merkel (and her opposite numbers in France, Scandinavia,
Southern Europe, and even in Canada) has made her country dangerous to live in
now, her bubble world view has fueled a hubristic confidence in her, in spite
of the carnage and misery she caused, that she can be reelected.

The increasing levels of support being
enjoyed by Europe's populist Eurosceptic parties are clearly associated with
issues which are coming to dominate popular concern. Previous worries over
unemployment and the economy have been side-lined: the issues now vexing
European voters the most, according to the EU's own figures (pp.4-5), are mass immigration (45%) and
terrorism (32%).

Breaking these Eurobarometer numbers down
further, country by country (p.7), Dutch voters picked immigration
as their greatest concern by a startling 56%, with terrorism following at 33%.

French voters, despite being subjected to
more recent
terrorist atrocities than any other European nation, picked immigration and
terrorism by a margin of 36% and 35%, respectively, according to the latest EU report. The parlous state of the French economy continues to be a major concern to French voters.

The elections scheduled next year in the
Netherlands, France, and Germany, are doubly significant in that they make up
three of the six original signatory nations of the founding treaty which
eventually gave rise to the EU.

The
Local reports that it’s significant that Hitler’s Mein Kampf, now available
in Germany after decades of censorship, is rising in popularity. It has been
popular among Muslims
and Arabs since WWII. No surprise.

For 70 years after the end of the Second
World War, the brutal dictator’s manifesto remained unpublished in Germany.

Its copyright was owned by the state of
Bavaria, which prevented new editions from being printed in Germany for fear of
reinvigorating Nazi sentiments.

But when its copyright expired - 70 years
after the death of the author, as is standard - an annotated version was
printed for the first time again last year by the Institute of Contemporary
History (IfZ) in Munich. And the publisher quickly began to sell out, rushing to print more copies to
meet the high demand.

What Obama would like to do to America and Israel;

make
them disappear.

Over the past year, around 85,000 copies have
been sold, much to the surprise of the institute. The IfZ had at first only
printed 4,000 copies, and now it's heading for its sixth print run.

In April, the book become number one on
Spiegel’s bestseller list.

“The number of sales has overwhelmed us,” the
director of the IfZ, Andreas Wirsching, told DPA on Tuesday. “No one could have
really predicted it.”

No one could have predicted it – except a philosopher who understood
why Germany is still mesmerized by and hankering for “strong leadership,” else
why would Merkel have ever been elected or feel confident now that she could be
reelected?

So, who sired the EU juggernaut?

Signed in March 1957, by Italy, France, West
Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, the Treaty of Rome established both the European Economic
Community – proposing a single market for goods, labour, services and capital
within the bloc – and also, crucially, brought the European Commission into
existence.

The executive body of the EU, which also has
the sole remit for initiating legislation at the European level, is led by the controversial Jean-Claude Juncker, whose own grim opinion
of the nation state's role in the likely future of the European continent was
made clear in a speech on December 9.

The paramount issue, writes Igler, is why any nation would wish to
become or remain under the thumb of faceless, power-wielding bureaucrats.

The question remains, however, why any nation
would want to throw out its sovereignty to institutions that are fundamentally
unaccountable, that provide no mechanism for reversing direction, and whose
only "solution" to problems involves arrogating to itself ever more
authoritarian, rather than democratically legitimate, power.

It must be a strain self-eradicating sadomasochism. “We are not worthy
of preservation. We must atone for our sins. Therefore we will allow millions
of savages and primitive peoples to invade us and transform us into tolerant
maquettes of nations. Our people will suffer and even die, but, “On ne fait pas
d'omelette sans casser des oeufs.”

Despite voters' concerns about mass
migration, in the absence of presenting their electorates with a compelling economic
vision outside of the EU, polling numbers still favour the political
mainstream.

Given that the EU's institutions have been so
instrumental as a causal factor in the mass migration and terrorism that are
now dominating the minds of national electorates, some might argue that the
sooner Europeans get rid of the EU, which is now doing more harm than good, the
better.

The EU’s metaphoric rule of thumb saying is
attributed to either Robespierre or Napoleon. It is appropriate that the EU
would adopt it from two of the most egg-breaking tyrants in recent history. And
then they had their cheerleaders.

As Fascism
rose in Europe, and Japanese jingoism emerged in the East, Duranty (Walter Duranty, the Communism-loving
reporter of the New York Times) wrote glowing accounts of Stalin's Five-Year
Plan. Almost single-handedly did Duranty aid and abet one of the world's most
prolific mass murderers, knowing all the while what was going on, but
refraining from saying precisely what he knew to be true.

He had
swallowed the ends-justifies-the-means-argument hook, line and sinker. Duranty
loved to repeat, when Stalin's atrocities were brought to light, "you can't make an omelet without breaking a
few eggs." Those "eggs" were the heads of men, women and
children, and those "few" were merely tens of millions.

Stalin was another kind of magician. He made
people disappear. Hitler made people disappear. Duranty made the truth
disappear. No one should be awed, no one should be surprised if they have
examined their agendas.

Merkel, Hollande, and others are all birds of
a feather, magicians who belong to the same elitist union. Their passion is to
pull the wool over everyone’s eyes and pick your pocket at the same time.

Allahu Akbar! First you are free, and then you’re not! For
my next trick, First you exist, and then you don’t!
